#2 If the guy is anything special he would not be dealt by the Raiders to a division opponent. |

We weren't exactly stacked at the position even WITH Jones. This guy was a 2022 4th round pick, so we have him on his rookie contract for 3 years. I know nothing about him, but was expecting us to make some moves to help the position. Thought we'd be settling for guys at the cutdown.

JFC, you daft ****, Jones and Farrell play different positions. "Thanks to Jones KC is making this deal" is a stupid ****ing comment. As for #2, there is plenty of recent evidence that the Raiders are dumb as **** when it comes to dealing talent. Look no further than getting rid of Carr to bring in Jimmy Grapes as a prime example.

The nt types would Be used first down and sometimes second and almost never third. You’d really need a lot of de for this type of scheme and maybe 2-3 legit nt fatties |

Because ends like Jones are extremely difficult to find, the idea is to stuff the middle no matter what.

Could just be indicative of a scheme shift. You don't replace Chris Jones - he's pretty much a unicorn. Instead you just clog the shit out of the middle, tell them to shove their asses off, use 2 to occupy 3 and give yourselves a numbers advantage. You may see some twists/curls with LBs off the edge, but in this scenario, I can't imagine you'll be seeing many interior stunts, etc... Without Jones, you don't try to do the same thing with a guy who ISN'T Jones. You just do a new thing. That new thing may just be 3 NTs and a guy like Wharton or Dana who can sub in as a NASCAR DT and then you just hope your edge rushers are developing. Man, they're asking a LOT from FAU at the moment. And they sure seem to be leaning into Karlaftis as a 10 sack guy.

With him in the fold, you've got 3 really good chess pieces to move around with FAU, Karlaftis and Omenihu. You've got the new kid they drafted this year to develop as well. Then this happens. It seems like a real blindsided them kinda thing cause they defense has been really built around him. |
